Notes
'Creme de la Creme' rose (Rosa 'Creme de la Creme') is a compact shrub for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and loamy or clay soil. White flowers are fragrant and bloom from early to late summer. Bees visit them. Rob Somerfield bred it in 2006.
